Root easy root?

Gloris · Jul 30, 2012

just trying to find the easiest way to root this phone because i'm so tired of the awful battery life.....what's the point in having a smart phone if you have to turn off half the features in order to get a days use out of it? :s

so i want to be able to underclock to help save battery?

but this needs root.....but there is so much conflicting informations out there I have no idea what is relevant or not anymore.

I want simply to root, but I don't want to hav to wipe everything off my phone by flashing a whole new system or anything like that.

I just want basically a totallly stock phone, but so that i can underclock?

Hey Gloris,

Rooting isn't too hard a process, these seem to be the latest root instructions without having to unlock the phones boot loader:

[Guide]Rooting Xperia S ICS and GB (Locked Bootloaders) (Easier new method with CWM) - xda-developers

If you get stuck post your Q here and I'll try to help out

Unfortunately no, but if you decide to unlock your bootloader, which wipes your data, after that it's really easy to root and keep your data
